Nico Porteous: Youngest Skier Ever to Land Triple Cork 14

History has been made once again this year; fourteen year old wunderkind, Nico Porteous, has stomped the ever living piss out of this saucy triple 14 at the Jossi Wells Big Air event going on at Cardrona Ski Resort in New Zealand.

Before you grab your pitchforks and start hollering about an age claim or that "Triples suck yo!" just appreciate what went down, down under. Nico has mad style and a trick bag larger than 98% of you reading this.

"You'd expect the freeskiing community to celebrate the kid, and while big parts of it did, I also saw a tsunami of negative reactions from armchair skiers, saying how his triple didn't have enough style."
